Motivated vendors are on the move presenting a super opportunity to live off the grid and have that independent, quality lifestyle. Excellent value (mid $700,000's), this home offers the complete green sustainable package. Sun for solar, rain for water, and the earth for growing an abundance of food in all seasons. Producing your own power and living independently not only feeds your soul but one feels all the richer. This modest solid 1960s home has sun-drenched decks to the north and east, inviting you to embrace rural living - watch your stock roam, the grass grow and your produce thrive.

This sustainable, off-grid haven operates effortlessly with 12 ground-mounted solar panels, a wetback system, twin 30,000 litre water tanks, and a UV filter providing clean water to the entire house. A dedicated shed houses a backup generator for added peace of mind. Solar electric fencing and sheep-proof paddocks make it perfect for grazing livestock or securing animals, complemented by a livestock trough and a chicken coop. A shipping container provides generous storage and houses the solar inverter batteries, while a brand-new 8x9m shed is ideal space for vehicles, a workshop, or weekend projects.
